Answer: The correct answer is a 25% discount.

Step-by-step explanation: In order to calculate the percentage discount you need to first calculate the amount of the discount. This is done by subtracting the two numbers. $72 - $54 = $18. The amount of the discount is $18.

Next, you need to calculate what percentage the discount is of the original price. This is done by dividing the discount amount by the original price.

$18/$72 = 25%

This answer is the percentage discount.

mote1985 [20]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Given : In a restaurant, the proportion of people who order coffee with their dinner is p.

Sample size : n= 144

x= 120

\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{120}{144}=0.83333333\approx0.8333

The null and the alternative hypotheses if you want to test if p is greater than or equal to 0.85 will be :-

Null hypothesis : H_0: p\geq0.85   [ it takes equality (=, ≤, ≥) ]

Alternative hypothesis : H_1: p  [its exactly opposite of null hypothesis]

∵Alternative hypothesis is left tailed, so the test is a left tailed test.

Test statistic : z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}

z=\dfrac{0.83-0.85}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.85(1-0.85)}{144}}}\\\\=-0.561232257678\approx-0.56

Using z-vale table ,

Critical value for 0.05 significance ( left-tailed test)=-1.645

Since the calculated value of test statistic is greater than the critical value , so we failed to reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion : We have enough evidence to support the claim that p is greater than or equal to 0.85.

Answer:

4 feet

Let the side length of the square be x feet.

x^2 - 5 = 59

x^2 = 64

x = ±4 (reject - 4 since length > 0)
